5 To change the height where MAPs are mounted, specify the new
mounting height in the AP Placement Height box.
6 To change the WX switch model, select the model from the WX Model
list.
7 To change the MAP connection type, select the type from the AP
Connection Type list:
Direct—MAPs are directly attached to dedicated WX switch ports.
Distributed—MAPs can be indirectly attached through
intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 devices.
Distributed (Auto)—MAPs can be indirectly attached through
intermediate Layer 2 or Layer 3 devices. They receive their
configuration automatically using a profile that assigns a
Distributed MAP number and name to the MAP from among the
unused valid MAP numbers available on the switch.
8 To allow locked MAP access points to be deleted when Compute and
Place determines that they are no longer required, select Allow Deletion
of Locked MAPs.
A locked MAP is a MAP that is already associated with the coverage area.
For example, if you computed and placed MAPs in this coverage area on
a previous occasion and you are now optimizing the plan, the MAPs are
still associated with the coverage area. (See "Locking and Unlocking
MAPs" on page 151.)
9 To plan for redundant MAP connections to WX switches, select
Compute Redundancy.
Only AP models that have two Ethernet ports can support redundant
direct connections. However, models with one Ethernet port can support
redundant distributed connections.
10 To change the MAP connection type for the redundant connection, select
Direct, Distributed, or Distributed (auto) from the AP Connection
Type list.
WX4400 switches support indirect MAP connections only.
11 To change the number of redundant connections for the distributed
connection type, type the number in the Redundant Level box.
For direct connections, the redundancy level is always 1.
12 Click Next. The Coverage Area Selection dialog is displayed.
